DESCRIPTION & CONSTRUCTION:
This substantial detached 5/6 bedroom family residence was originally built in the 1930’s to traditional standards. More recently, the present owners have substantially enlarged the accommodation on two levels (2005/6) to provide versatile and adaptable living accommodation which could appeal to a multi-generational family. The property enjoys the benefit of a separate detached lodge/gym. The property offers ample off road parking and is set within well-established gardens totalling 0.22 of an acre. The property will be sold with the benefit of no onward chain.
